The Process of Being

As David Bowie sang, “…this is not America…..”  oh but it is my friend.

Movement of people,

energies, thoughts, things

Loving all of those

even the dark places

in which we love to hide

hard to face

but not realizing

the stagnant

stank of fear of fear

but loving that darkness

with forgiveness, gratitude

moves it along

into light…

movement brings surprises

travelling into other possible realms

could this be me, finally

open, open, open

and in love, love love

cultivating kindness

to darkness

embracing, going with love

seemed so simple and yet so hard

but spreading love, spreading joy

so fleeting yet contagious

floating, spinning, turning,

potentials creating things

releasing, giving, sharing

loving, do we even know

our own power

movement

wow, beyond anything

I could’ve ever thought of

thank you,

thank

you

me

god

universe

source

great beyond

thank you

Today, I was washing my face (with Trader Joe’s Castille Soap btw, doesn’t dry my skin out and keeps my skin vibrant, and clean  if I do say so myself!) and I looked over at the toilet to make sure the cover was down (good Feng Shui for prosperity) and it was and I was over come with excitable joy and I wanted to just scream up and down.  Which I did and then I took a moment to feel more into this spontaneous bout of joy and I understood…here I was, in my little cottage (as my friend calls it), with MY toilet and in MY bathroom, it was maaaaaaaaaaaveholous and I felt even more grateful for being able to live here once again.  Of course the morning sun was partially flooding into my bathroom and with my window open I could see the teenage Oak Tree and the Grandma-ma Oak tree whose branches reach over the roof of my little guesthouse/cottage. 

Doing little things to cultivate your happiness brings around these spontaneous fits of joy, how much fun is that? 

Check out this list of uses for using crushed aspirin for pimples reducing redness and swelling, a great astringent.

I haven’t tried it, (still using toothpaste) but I just read about this today..http://www.gomestic.com/Homemaking/Ten-Surprising-Uses-For-Aspirin-.39680

I’m slowly updating my store on Cafepress.com and I added this image to my series “Cuties” and made very cool posters, 20×13.1 (small) and 35×23.

I took this photo on a day trek up to Sarangkot, outside of Pohkara. I tried to take a candid picture, but they saw the camera and came running up to me.

A little bit of Sharmila Mali trivia, heh heh, my cousin is cropped out on the left, he was my pawn that I was pretending to take a picture of when I was really focused on these girls playing. But like I said, the camera was too much of hamlet opportunity for them. You can see what remains of his shoulder on the far left.

sorry Ajey…. :*
